One cannot but agree with her that the task of positioning the country in a good stead in the comity of nations should, indeed, start from individuals, families or homes as these constituents or units are microcosms of the larger
It was the parents who decided what was good for the family and the children had no say even if it meant being sold into slavery or forced labour.
